Abstract

Prophets of Old and The Day of the End argues for a historical and literary approach to apocalyptic. It tackles the problem of the origins of early Jewish apocalyptic by describing the correspondences and differences between some so-called protoapocalyptic and apocalyptic texts. The bulk of the book consists of exegetical studies of parts of Zechariah, Deuterozechariah and the Enochic Book of Watchers. Most of these studies offer new interpretations of the examined texts. The framework of the book presents fresh perspectives on apocalyptic. Some parts are more important to the scholar of post-exilic prophecy, and other parts to the student of the intertestamental literature. Yet, the overall approach and the conclusions bearing on the phenomenon of apocalyptic are of interest to scholars of both fields.

Abstract

In contrast to the prevailing scholarly con-sensus that understands sentimentality to be grounded on a logic of love and sympathy, Apocalyptic Sentimentalism demonstrates that in order for sentimentality to work as an antislavery engine, it needed to be linked to its seeming opposite--fear, especially the fear of God's wrath. Most antislavery reformers recognized that calls for love and sympathy or the representation of suffering slaves would not lead an audience to "feel right" or to actively oppose slavery. The threat of God's apocalyptic vengeance--and the terror that this threat inspired--functioned within the tradition of abolitionist sentimentality as a necessary goad for sympathy and love. Fear,then, was at the center of nineteenth-century sentimental strategies for inciting antislavery reform, bolstering love when love faltered, and operating as a powerful mechanism for establishing interracial sympathy. Depictions of God's apocalyptic vengeance constituted the most efficient strategy for antislavery writers to generate a sense of terror in their audience. Focusing on a range of important anti-slavery figures, including David Walker, Nat Turner, Maria Stewart, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and John Brown, Apocalyptic Sentimentalism illustrates how antislavery discourse worked to redefine violence and vengeance as the ultimate expression (rather than denial) of love and sympathy. At the sametime, these warnings of apocalyptic retribution enabled antislavery writers to express, albeit indirectly, fantasies of brutal violence against slaveholders. What began as a sentimental strategy quickly became an incendiary gesture, with antislavery reformers envisioning the complete annihilation of slaveholders and defenders of slavery. Situated at the intersection of love and fear, Apocalyptic Sentimentalism proposes a new genealogy for understanding literary sentimentalism as a complex negotiation of seemingly oppositional emotional economies. In the manuscript, Kevin Pelletier investigates the convergence of emergent sentimental practices with the fire and brimstone rhetoric of evangelical Christianity. Its aims are threefold: 1) to demonstrate that prophecies of apocalypse, and the fear they stimulate, are foundational to the U.S. sentimental tradition; 2) to analyze how abolitionist and antislavery writers adopted and revised the rhetoric of apocalyptic sentimentality in the years leading up to the Civil War; and 3) to examine how this discourse of apocalyptic sentimentalism was used to produce an innovative theory of selfhood, one that challenged the then-prevalent notion that African Americans were inherently inferior--physically, emotionally, and intellectually--than whites. The works of Harriet Beecher Stowe, Frederick Douglass, Martin Delany, and others are discussed, as Pelletier works to uncover this ignored tradition and demonstrate how nineteenth-century apocalyptic sentimentalists produced messianic selfhood in order to subvert established racial hierarchies.

Abstract

This volume contains five chapters which investigate the early Christian appropriations of Jewish apocalyptic material. An introductory chapter surveys ancient perceptions of the apocalyses as well as their function, authority, and survival in the early Church. The second chapter focuses on a specific tradition by exploring the status of the Enoch-literature, the use of the fallen-angel motif, and the identification of Enoch as an eschatological witness. Christian transmission of Jewish texts, a topic whose significance is more and more being recognized, is the subject of chapter three which analyzes what happend to 4,5 and 6 Ezra as they were copied and edited in Christian circles. Chapter four studies the early Christian appropriation and reinterpretation of Jewish apocalyptic chronologies, especially Daniel's vision of 70 weeks. The fifth and last chapter is devoted to the use and influence of Jewish apocalyptic traditions among Christian sectarian groups in Asia Minor and particularly in Egypt. Taken together these chapters written by four authors, offer illuminating examples of how Jewish apocalyptic texts and traditions fared in early Christianity. Editors James C. VanderKam is lecturing at the University of Notre Dame; William Adler is lecturer at North Carolina State University.

Abstract

La littérature apocalyptique, qui remonte à une tradition pré-chrétienne, se présente Comme une révélation de ce que seront les temps à venir. La naissance du royaume de Dieu y est annoncée au prix de la maîtrise du mal sur toute la terre, prélude nécessaire à son anéantissement par le bien. L'Apocalypse de Jean, le plus connu de ces textes, emploie un langage symbolique qui, au cours des siècles, sera interprété et revendiqué par divers mouvements de pensée, dont le millénarisme. A l'époque de la première croisade, l'Apocalypse, inspirant l'idée de précipiter la fin des temps, fondera véritablement l'unité du monde chrétien face à l'Orient. Mais au fil des siècles, et en dehors de quelques manifestations épisodiques, l'idée apocalyptique sera peu à peu ignorée. La révolution de 1789 et les bouleversements qu'elle entraîna, la confrontation entre l'Eglise et la raison conquérante, réactivèrent dans le monde catholique l'attente de la fin des temps. L'histoire se lira alors à travers des catégories religieuses : Dieu et son Eglise doivent combattre Satan qui mène un complot anti-catholique à travers la modernité. Enfin, une tradition plus spécifiquement eschatologique, à laquelle on peut rattacher le cardinal Lustiger et le pape Jean-Paul II, s'est construite progressivement après la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Elle voit dans le monde moderne le lieu d'un combat spirituel fondamental qui sera conclu par la Parousie. Etroitement liée, depuis une trentaine d'années, au renouveau du phénomène charismatique, cette tradition demeure paradoxalement vivace dans nos sociétés fortement sécularisées. Elle coexiste avec l'apocalyptisme né au siècle des Lumières. En effet, anti-maçonnisme, anti-judaïsme théologique et antisémitisme, anti-protestantisme et anti-mondialisme, expressions pour certains catholiques de la lutte contre une modernité qui bouleverse leurs structures mentales et sociales, après être entrés en convergence au XIXe siècle, ont créé une configuration intellectuelle singulière, propre aujourd'hui aux milieux traditionalistes. Leurs modes de représentations millénaristes ne prennent sens que confrontés aux autres traditions catholiques qui, au fil des siècles, ont fini par ignorer l'Apocalypse. Ayant enquêté sur les manifestations de l'apocalyptisme dans le monde moderne, l'auteur montre en quoi ce mode de pensée est une réalité centrale du catholicisme français, quels qu'aient pu être ses avatars.
